Numerous laws - including the Green New Deal - have been proposed
or passed in cities, states, and countries to transition from
fossil fuels to 100% clean, renewable energy in order to address
climate change, air pollution, and energy insecurity. This textbook
lays out the science, technology, economics, policy, and social
aspects of such transitions. It discusses the renewable electricity
and heat generating technologies needed; the electricity, heat,
cold, and hydrogen storage technologies required; how to keep the
electric power grid stable; and how to address non-energy sources
of emissions. It discusses the history of the 100% Movement, which
evolved from a collaboration among scientists, cultural leaders,
business people, and community leaders. Finally, it discusses
current progress in transitioning to 100% renewables, and the new
policies needed to complete the transition. Online course
supplements include lecture slides, answers to the end-of-chapter
student exercises, and a list of extra resources.
